Crystal Report XI not updating correctly within CR Server

Greetings. I have a report that I have created using Crystal Reports XI. I then have published it and set it up within Crystal Reports SERVER to automatically run on a daily basis. The report automatically runs with no errors, however, when you look at the data, it does not reflect the current database - instead shows the data from whever it was published. Thus, the reports look like they are updated daily, however the information inside shows that they are not.
Any help/tips/advice on what to look for to fix this problem would greatly help! I'm new to Crystal Reports Server.
Thanks,
Pam

I have them set up on the Crystal Reports side, then when I publish them, the database information is "grayed out", so the reports initially don't run once published. So, I then log into the CMS using the ADMIN password and set the database parameters. The reports run fine and the data is saved with the report (only if I publish the report with the data saved). However, the next day (assuming you have daily reoccurence setup), the report is the initially published contents, not the "refresh".
I am probably missing some "simple" step...but being a newbie to this, I'm obviously missing it! Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Pam

Crystal Reports 2011 not working in windows 2008 server CITRIX

Hi All,
We are using Crystal reports 2011 in windows 2008 server which is CITRIX farm., having crystal reports 2011 runtime in it..
We are using .net applicationton to run the reports.
The crystal reports parameter popup is getting opened. But the calendar icon is not fuctioning ..clicking on the calendar control no pop up appears. no error too..
OK button is not responding. Cancel button too.
Can you please help us why we are facing this issue in CITRIX only. When we are using the same version in desktop, Crystal report is working fine.
Please feel free to ask if required any more details about my problem.
Regards,
Venkat.K

Ido's idea is excellent, only addition I'd like to make is the following:
You are trying to run a .NET app. However, CR 2011 does not install any SDKs. So, the directory specified by Ido is not correct. Assuming that by CR 2011 you actually mean "SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET", then the directory would be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\Crystal Reports 2011\crystalreportviewers\prompting
If that does not help, use Process Monitor and see what the logs tell you (look for Access Denied messages).

Crystal Report Images Not Showing - JSP inside /WEB-INF folder

Hi Experts,
I am using Crystal report for Eclipse and also using Struts2 and tiles framework combination.
The problem is when viewing the report all I've got is red X on all images and the graph image also not showing. This is when I use tiles and my jsp is inside the web-inf folder.
This is my struts link: href="s:url value='/report/reportOpen.action?report=1'
I've checked that the path to the viewer generated HTML is not correct. see code below.
src="../../../crystalreportviewers/js/crviewerinclude.js"
But when I test to access a simple jsp viewer that resides on the web root folder, this works fine but of course this is not what I want to have. I need to have my banner and menus on top of the report page (using tiles)
This is my jsp link: href="s:url value='/ReportViewer.jsp?report=1'
Viewer generated HTML below.
src="crystalreportviewers/js/crviewerinclude.js"
This might be a common problem and that you can share to me your solution.
Note: I removed the script tags because I can't submit this entry.
Thank you in advance,

Crystal Report Images Not Showing - JSP inside /WEB-INF folder

Hi Saravana,
After a few experimentation from your idea i was able to figure out the problem and now it is working.
I don't have to copy the folder to where my jsp resides but still maintains it in the root location: web/crystalreportviewers
The changes should always be in web.xml.
1st: change the crystal_image_uri value to ../crystalreportviewers
2nd: change crystal_image_use_relative value to "web"
Change to "web" instead of webapp because that is what I named my web root folder.
<context-param>
 <param-name>crystal_image_uri</param-name>
 <param-value>../crystalreportviewers</param-value>
 </context-param>
 <context-param>
 <param-name>crystal_image_use_relative</param-name>
 <param-value>web</param-value>
 </context-param>
Thank you. You showed me the way on how to solve the 3 day problem.
BTW, my next problem is when clicking on any buttons prev/next/print/export, I got this error HTTP Status 404.
Well, at least for now I can view my initial report. I just need to figure out the next issue and with the help of the great people here in the forum.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Rulix

Podcast episodes not updating correctly in iTunes

Hello,
I am having a problem with my podcast episodes not updating correctly in iTunes. The last 5 episodes I published appeared in iTunes at the bottom of the episode list, as if they were old episodes--i.e., they appear as if they were the first 5 episodes published. They also do not have a date assigned to them as the rest of the episodes do. They were not distributed to podcast subscribers, possibly because iTunes is not recognizing them as new episodes.
Here is my podcast feed: http://ic.instantcustomer.com/instantcasts/feed/podcast/5047174b90f14efe542431c2 674b1bd9
And here is the link to my podcast in iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/small-business-marketing-minute/id896451432
The problem began with last Wednesday's episode, which was Episode 30, and has continued ever since. I did not do anything differently when I published that episode than I did when I published the previous 29 episodes, and those updated just fine, or at least seemed to as far as I could tell (i.e., they appeared correctly on iTunes, and appeared as a new episode for me as a podcast subscriber). Also, after examining the rss feed, I could not see any difference between episodes 1-29 and episodes 30--34, at least as far as the way the feed was formatted. So, I have no idea what triggered the problem, and no idea how to fix it. If I can't resolve the issue then I think I'll have to abandon the podcast, since there's no point in publishing a podcast that doesn't distribute new episodes to subscribers.
If anyone can shed light on this problem for me, it would be most appreciated. Thanks!
-Kevin

As you say, in the Store the latest episodes don't show a publishing date. When subscribing in iTunes, none of the episodes show a publishing date, and they are listed in the order they appear in the feed.
In the feed, none of your episodes has a 'pubDate' tag, which is where iTunes gets the date from. Since most of the episodes in the Store have a date, it looks as if originally your episodes had this tag, but that five episodes back you did something in whatever method you are using to create your feed which removed these tags: the Store is presumably getting the dates from its cache since the episodes haven't changed, but obviously doesn't have the dates for the last 5 episodes.

Recordmode data are not updated correctly

We currently have an issue while using the 3.x data flow in BI 7.0. The same also holds with 3.x versions of BI.
Suppose you have an ODS sending data in an InfoCube. When you initialize the delta process with data transfer then the recordmode field in the communication structure contains null values even though in the change log table of the ODS it has values. This behaviour does not hold when you send further data with deltas.
We want the recordmode data to be updated correctly since we use them in a condition. Does anybody know about this problem?
Best regards
Theodoros

Hi again,
the problem is also not related with any kind of mapping. We are just sending some data from an DSO to an InfoCube. Recordmode values are maintained correctly in the change log table of the DSO. Nevertheless, they are not updated correctly in the InfoCube's update rules communication structure unless we are uploading deltas. My question is why they are not updated also correctly when we are doing an initialization of the delta with data transfer.
Thanks anyway
Theodoros

Windowed CLOCK does not update correctly

My floating desktop clock [digital with date] is one hour earlier than it should be and will not update correctly on startup. The time shown is correct if I switch to the menubar version, as is the time in the time update slot on the Time & Date tab in Preferences. But the analog clock below the time update slot shows one hour earlier also. Am not sure how long this has been a problem since I haven't traveled to a different timezone in two months. At this stage in the lifecycle of Tiger, these kinds of petty annoyances should NOT be occurring as new issues.

ASP timeout value not updating correctly

MS SQL Server 2003
Connection timeout not updating correctly. In Enterprise Manager I updated from 600 to 900 seconds. I had some connections issues and the solution said to modify the properties of the DB user to grant it 'write' privilege. It solved the
first issue but now it is timing out after 300 seconds. After searching again I saw something about modifying the timeout for the user. Could this be the solution and how do you do that.
Classic ASP. In the code I use:
Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
Thank you in advance.

Hello,
You can try to using the CommandTimeout property to specify the number of seconds to wait while attempting to execute a command. For example:
set comm=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
comm.CommandTimeout=600

Apple Mail read status does not update correctly

I have one iMac running Mavericks and using Apple Mail to run three IMAP accounts provided by a local Apple Mountain Lion Server.
It exhibits two issues:
Firstly it fails to refresh the view automatically in the message viewer window.
The header at the very top of the window will update live when a new message comes in so that it says "X Messages (Y Unread)" with the correct numbers. The list of messages does not update unless you switch mailboxes, then switch back again. Then they appear instantly.
The second and more critical issue is that the read and unread status of messages is not updating correctly at all. Refreshing the view make no difference. Two of the three accounts are shared with 6 other iMacs running Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard. None of these have an issue.
I have deleted and re-added the accounts several times, I have tried a completely clean new user account. Sometimes the first issue goes away but it returns after a short time.
The next step would be to erase the whole Mac but I am reluctant to go to the hassle as I have a suspicion that this will not make a difference and that there is a glitch with Mail on Mavericks. I have run all updates.

Hi Brenn,
To narrow down the issue, we need more investigation:
1.Does the issue occurs only in Category view? Please check if user 1 set the view to Date and email read status update.
2.Does the issue occurs to user1's own mailbox with the same setting as shared mailbox?
3.If the shared mailbox is in cached mode, please check Account Settings > Change > More Settings... > Adwanced > Use Cached Exchange mode > check Download shared folders.
4.Please switch to online mode for shared mailbox and test the issue.

Does Crystal Reports need to be on the web server?

Hello,
here's my scenario. someone who left us moved a .Net web application from server 1 to server 2 and didn't leave us notes of what he did. The report came up on server 2 fine but was not getting the right data so we changed the datasource to get the data correctly. Now we deployed the fixed version on server 2 and refreshed the web server. Now we see the correct results BUT the Business Objects icons (e.g. BO image, print icon, forward and back icon) are all "X" meaning that they could not be found.
We took a look at server 1 and it had the full version of Crystal Reports installed on it. On server 2 it looked like the DLLs were dumped into the GAC and that's all.
We're a bit perplexed by why it was working on server 2 with all the Business Objects icons even though Crystal Reports was not installed on it until we restarted the server with the fixed code. We were thinking maybe it's some sort of caching?? I've never seen this before so I'm a bit perplexed.
Any ideas on why this happened?
Thanks for taking a look.

Hello Jeff
Mysterious for sure. When you say;
no virtual directory to crystalreportviewers115 and Crystal reports is not installed on the server (except for seeing only a few CR Dll's)...so how the heck did he get it working
You're essentially saying something like;
The car has no wheels, no engine, yet somehow it managed to get from point A to point B.
Sorry to say, but it ain't happening...
The only way to get a project that includes CR to work is to deploy the CR runtime. Either via MSI file where a simple double click will install the runtime and configure the viewer directory under the default app pool, or via a setup project you build using the CR MSM files. Again the files will be installed and the viewer directory configured under the default app pool. If your app is under a custom app pool, you need to configure the viewer folder under that pool as the install has no idea about non default app pools.

Login settings will not update the local testing server files

When uploading to web server from local testing server, changing login settings in the control panel does not update the local testing server Restrict Access to page files. Causing login on website not to function.
It does however update the Connections file and the login wizard form.
What is the best way to change login settings before uploading site to web server?
Thanks

Dan - I am having the same exact problem. I'm using the restrict access and user registration and login - when attempting to use the Update Record wizard to allow users to change their password or email address, it doesn't change the record.

Folder Redirection did not update to the new server

hello guys, I had migrated quite some time ago to a new server.
I thought everything works fine, basically the server functionality DNS, Replication and other stuff works fine.
But I notice that some of the workstation did not actually update its folder redirection to the new server.
Their desktop and my documents still points to the old server.
So their offline files, is becoming larger and larger.
I have some workaround but it's a lot of work. Question is, why those Win 7 workstation folder redirection did not update to the new server.
What should be the best practice? During the migration process from the old server to the new server, all workstation should be turned on?
Or any tools to update those workstation to the new server without losing their files?
Basically, just editing the registry to point to the new server will help. But it means losing their current files and whatever old stuff that is on the server will be the one that will be shown on their desktop and documents.
any inputs is greatly appreciated.

Hi biswajeetpattnaik, before migration it was Windows 2003.
Then I introduce Windows 2008.
Then I introduce a new Windows 2012.
Now Windows 2012 is the main DC.
Actually, everything is under control right now. As what I said on my first post, I manage to do some work around.
The only question I have on mind, is how on earth this thing happen.
I was assuming, that the workstation will be able to point to the new server, without any glitch since everything is working fine.
And the GPO was applying on the workstation. If I type gpresult /v on the workstation is it being applied. Even if I run GP Modelling it is also shows on the result that the folder redirection is being applied.
But to my surprise the folder redirection still points to old server, if I have not discovered it then it would be difficult if some files will get lost.
Thanks for your reply.

Crystal report parameters not available when running from within SAP B1

Hi
I have found this problem a few times already and I think it is now about time I find a solution for it.
On my latest Crystal report, I have 2 parameters.
The 1e is a dynamic parameter, allowing the user to select multiple groups.
The 2nd is also a dynamic parameter, allowing the user to select only a single item.
These parameters works fine in Crystal and do what they are supposed to do.
After publishing the report in SAP Busines One (SBO) and viewing it from within SBO, the 2 parameter prompts are still there but without the dynamic list to select any data from.
On a previous report where a parameter has been defined as "Any value can be entered for the parameter" once again worked fine in crystal but from within SBO the parameter allowed no value to be entered.
Have anyone got a solution for this.
Regards
Burger

Sorry guys
You have lost me. I have searched the form and I have worked through the whole pdf you suggested.
I have no idea what I am supposed to do or see or use "ItemGroup@ SELECT ItmsGrpCod, ItmsGrpNam FROM OITB ORDER BY ItmsGrpCod"
As a test I created a test report with the following parameters to test how it would present itself in B1
1.     A static parameter with no list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = True u2013 B1 result. A box that I could enter anything. Defeating the object as I wanted a list of valid options
2.     A static parameter with no list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. A box that I could enter anything. Defeating the object as I wanted a list of valid options
3.     A static parameter with a list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = True u2013 B1 result. A box that I could select multiple values from a list. I could not add my own value. Defeating the object as the list is static
4.     A static parameter with a list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. A drop down box where I could select one of the values. Defeating the object as the list is static
5.     A static parameter with a list. Allow custom Values = False, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. Same as in point 4
6.     A Dynamic parameter. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. Same as in point 1 & 2. No Dynamic list returned and can not add own option
As mentioned. All the parameters work in Crystal as one expect it to. What I am after is what should I change in B1 so that the report works the same as in Crystal.
Where in B1 should it be changes and to what should it be changed.
If the changes should be done in crystal to cater for B1 then what should be changes where to what
I am not that familiar with B1.
In my test report I use B1 table OITM.
My parameter is Item (Crystal syntax {?Item}) and I use it in a filter to say {OITM.ItemCode} = {?Item}

Report does not display correctly when exported to adobe

Post Author: mgisonda
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hopefully someone can help me. I am currently running Crystal Reports profession version 10. I have applied service pack 1 and recently service pack 6. I am having a problem with the display of a report within adobe. My report is a bit complex. It is a 8.5x11 one page landscape report. It is set up in a grid format with multiple lines and boxes drawn on it. Here is the report information: Report Definition----
Number of Database Fields: 144 Number of On-Demand Formulas: 40 UFLs in use: None Page N of M Used: No File Format Schema: 10.2.0 I created the report using CR developer. I use the report within a web project. The user requests the report and it returns to the user, an adobe file of the report. However, this is where I am having trouble. On my local development machine, the report displays fine. In CR developer, the report displays fine. When I export the report to Adobe from the CR Developer, it exports fine. BUT when I run the report from my web site, the adobe file that is returned is broken up over 42 pages. What seems to be actually happening is the return adobe file seems to think that the page size is 2in X 4in.. Where it got that, I don't know.The server running IIS is a windows server 2003. It has adobe 8.0 reader on it. I also have Crystal 10 Server Distribution loaded on it. And I have loaded CR10 Service pack 6 on that as well. Below is the web code that is used to display the report:Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared'Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReportsImports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.EngineImports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportClassPublic Class PrintInspectionLayout Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim mNotInSpringDesign As String Dim mPartType As String mNotInSpringDesign = Request.QueryString("NotInSpringDesign") If mNotInSpringDesign = "TRUE" Then mStockCode = Request.QueryString("StockCode") lblNotInSpringDesign.Text = "Stock Code #: " & mStockCode & " does not exist in Spring Design." lblNotInSpringDesign.Visible = True Response.Write(" <center><a href='SpringDesignWildCardSearch.aspx'>Go To Search Page</a></center>") Else mStockCode = Request.QueryString("StockCode") Dim pList As ParameterValues = New ParameterValues Dim paramName, paramValue As String Dim pV As ParameterDiscreteValue = New ParameterDiscreteValue Dim Report As ReportDocument= New ReportDocument Dim expOpts As ExportOptions = New ExportOptions Dim pdfRtfWordFormatOpts As PdfRtfWordFormatOptions = expOpts.CreatePdfRtfWordFormatOptions Dim expFormatOpts As ExportFormatOptions = expOpts.ExportFormatOptions expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat mPartType = Request.QueryString("PartType") 'SELECT THE INSPECTION LAYOUT TYPE TO PRINT Select Case mPartType Case Is = "C" Report.Load(MapPath("./Reports/CompressionLayout.rpt")) 'Report.Load(MapPath("./Reports/PCAR.rpt")) Case Is = "E" Report.Load(MapPath("./Reports/ExtensionLayout.rpt")) Case Is = "T" Report.Load(MapPath("./Reports/TorsionLayout.rpt")) Case Is = "W" Report.Load(MapPath("./Reports/WasherLayout.rpt")) Case Is = "F" Report.Load(MapPath("./Reports/FreeFormLayout.rpt")) Case Else End Select pV.Value = mStockCode pList.Add(pV) Report.DataDefinition.ParameterFields("StockCode").ApplyCurrentValues(pList) Response.ClearContent() Response.ClearHeaders() Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf" Report.ExportToHttpResponse(expOpts, Response, False, "") Report.Close() End If End Sub Any ideas as to the solution?
